WAIT... MICHIGAN HAS A CAR INDUSTRY??

Yes it does, and my second wife Mary was deeply involved in it along with her son and dead husband. Ford was his employer until they had a better idea and laid him off and replaced him with Indian, the country, engineers, which only lasted for 6 months, but by then my stepson had found first a job designing headlights for a XYZ, no I don't know the name actually, in Austria, and then later a headlight trim company headquartered in Taiwan and the owner who may be no, probably is a multi-millionaire came over to hire him. My stepson also worked 6 months for Elon Musk in California, and also the other stainless steel electric car company called Fiskar. Coincidentally, my stepson's name is Don, and because for a period Fiskar of 6 months he was down to 12 employees and one of them was my stepson Don he is personally acquainted with fisker and can introduce you at the Detroit Auto show if you so choose. There is also a hamburger place in Austria that makes American style hamburgers and one of those that's on the menu is called the Detroit Don. This XYZ? Company also hired and fedded veted feted six high ranking Mexican officials from their factory in Mexico but they got thrown out of the country because their interpretation of borders is a little loose. Hopefully, that will change in the next decade. And now you know why I love Donald, the Donald, because one time, because the Taiwan company had to open a factory in the Detroit area, my stepson got in the car blathering that Donald Trump is the best president ever because he made the Taiwan company move a factory to Detroit. You're welcome.

WHY I'M CALLED MAD DOG

As usual I'm reversing my thank you by saying it before I read the next awesome blog by my hero Don. I like to do a lot of things back asswards. 

I also have gotten into the habit of praising the Lord before the experience which I do on a daily basis. I would actually go to work even though I was tired and grouchy saying I LOVE MY JOB! This brings to mind a workplace story that will partially explain why I am called MAD DOG. Later Gators.

THE STORY OF THE GOLD COIN IN THE FISH'S MOUTH AND JESUS

821 a.m. I'm sitting on the side of my bed. I finished my first cup of coffee. I don't think I'll post this on Facebook. I'm enjoying our friendship and mutual support and a little bit of privacy so I can talk about my personal life a little bit more open way than I can even on Facebook. 

Briefly, I not only voted for this, but I also clearly see God's providential hand in this and an answer to my specific prayer which may have happened after our company moved to Mishawaka and we brought assembly back from Mexico, but I don't remember the specific year other than it was after possibly 2000? Somewhere in that time period it dawned on me that the story of Jesus instructing one of the disciples to go fish and bring back a gold coin to pay for the temple tax was actually a heavenly hint on how to run our finances as a nation. Also, although I had fallen into the trap of thinking every president needed to be as smart as a lawyer or in the case of George Bush Jr well never mind but he was able to get everybody on board for the midterms of his first term in office. I've said enough and I take it back I am going to put this in the shepherds Journal blog but not in substack. Unlike my friends nobody shuts me up they just hide me or block me we're ignoring me until they're ready to talk me to me. I just got into a rant with a liberal friend on Facebook and I'm still not blocked or warned. It's a gift but then I have to hide a lot and either small churches or third shift or I have to be married as in my first wife who took all the black slack flack silly AI but she's cheaper than a third wife. Later Gators.

GUARDIAN ANGELS?

To my international friends... No messenger phone calls! I love you guys but I don't want to talk to you on messenger. It is 12:47 a.m. or after midnight anyway. I finally talked the cat into sitting on my lap without jumping off even though there's chicken close by and she wants to run and get into that but she'll also settle down and let me pet her. Carl should be headed home soon Charles pardon me while I correct my silly AI secretary my Google pixel phone. I'm learning to use my secretary more and more in my blogging life. I feel compelled to share the story of Jesus but in my typical stealth mode where you don't suspect I'm a preacher and so I bring up all sorts of interesting things to talk about as I sneak around behind you and get ready to introduce you to Jesus. So anyway I'm very happy with the responses I get with several blogs. It's obvious that God wants me to tell this story because he has anointed me but I claim no special privileges I'm no longer ordained I just tell my story but you do have to admit it's pretty cool that God answers my prayers in such spectacular ways. Some of them aren't in my book, for example the young lady by the name of Sarah who was almost killed by her husband and I had to run to the hospital to find her and I knew she was there but that doesn't stop a preacher from finding somebody in the hospital and so I found my way into the room and the family was terrified that the numbnuts husband was going to attempt to try again and I could see there thinking in that. So I prayed the very specific prayer that God would place two guardian angels by her door. Now she was in a coma for some time but when she slowly came out of it and started to speak which by the way the doctors at first thought that that would never happen, she's lifted her hand up and was whispering and her handsome brother but don't tell him. It'll go to his head. Anyway her brother leaned in close and she said quietly in a whisper there's two men in white at the door. I don't take credit for that I just say that from time to time God answers my prayer very specifically and for some reason he's still gives me insights into what's going on and hence I keep telling stories and some people are starting to believe them.

TRUMP'S FAULT

I just texted my oldest daughter. 

Also I need to get some more linisopril. I've reordered but it won't be here till May 14. Probably Trump's fault. 

Happy birthday to my only remaining son in law. Last man standing. My ex son-in-law is as romantic as a brick. Not taking sides. It is what it is. 

ISRAEL NEEDS A FRIEND

My comment today on substack. 

As per my normal? Form I will say good morning first and thank you all for being part of this amazing Mental Health support group. It's 10:25 a.m. and I am so thankful that God answers specific prayers for I pray for this and it's all set up. What I see is as my favorite President has said a golden age coming although not without some birth pains, and I'm not sure where the judgment of Babylon fits in, for we, the builders of this super corrupt city on seven hills certainly qualify and we as it's being revealed have driven the economies of not just ourselves but the world. But for now, Israel definitely needs a friend and my favorite President certainly qualifies. Even the very confused opposition called the Democrat Party agrees, although their help has been very tepid except for my favorite Democrat John Fetterman. 

This is enough for now. As usual, you guys inspire me and this will become a post, first on Facebook and then on blogspot and hopefully with time on substack. Later Gators.

ABOUT SUSAN COLLINS, SENATOR FROM MAINE

I would even say a kind word about Collins, who under extreme pressure came through with a reasoned treatise and a deciding vote on Trump's impeachment. 

On the other hand, there are a few living pieces of garbage that I would not throw a lifeline to if they were sinking in a cesspool. May I mention again Bill Gates, Mitch, Adam Schiff, Hillary Clinton, and the CBS Network executives that canceled after 3 years Star Trek.

DEEP SPACE NINE

HE WHO HAS THE GOLD MAKES THE RULES 

As stated by the infamous Ferengis, on the best Star Trek series Deep Space Nine led by Avery Brooks who also costarred in Spencer for Hire as a hit man and was coincidentally an excellent jazz pianist. 

The cast of characters that co-starred with them are iconic and memorable. 

My oldest daughter and I were so moved by their characters that we decided to attend a Star Trek Convention in nearby South Bend. We came in normal attire and were extremely underdressed. Klingons in full attire were speaking Klingon. More later.

U-2 banned?

Recent discussion on my Surber Nation Mental Health Group. 

Jeremy: U-2 the band? 

Don: it was never banned. It just didn't get much air time. 

Don't forget U-2 was shot down over the Soviet Union, being piloted by Gary Powers. There was a cute cartoon of two pilots with parachutes looking at each other, and one says U-2? 

You're welcome America.

SIMILAR REASONS

BUY AND HOLD TESLA. God has his hand on Elon just like he has his hand on my favorite President for similar reasons the protection of Israel and the promotion of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

PISSED OFF

As a possible final comment, may I express how pissed off I am with the Democrats who have known for 20 years or more does Bill Clinton know that this is what was necessary to keep this government strong cutting government jobs and raising tariffs judiciously Obama Bernie Sanders Nancy pelosi Bill Clinton of course Hillary is a brain dead Savage b**** so no she can't be trusted with even a remote control let alone anything national security and none of them understand the strength of strong leadership necessary to save Christians in these Muslim countries so far we can count on Saudi Arabia to not try to wipe off Israel and Christianity off the map kuwait? Did Abraham accords countries? I'm thinking of starting a new phrase called satanic suicidal suckers SSS but I'm still mowing on it molding m u l l i n g dumbass secretary. It's good thing she's an AI. Cats on my lap, daughters coming to give me a weekly shower that sometimes turns into a monthly shower and I'm trying to figure out ways to change my underwear more often other than that that's the crisis in this place I'm happier in a oceanfront ah, clam on a Sandy Beach. I'd fire this dumbass AI which he works cheap she works cheap I'm yelling at it now that's enough later Gators

I NEED YOUR HELP

This needs a lot of work.

I need your help. I'm somewhat certain that I have explained the parable or story of Jesus telling the disciple to go get the coin gold coin out of the fish's mouth and then he notes that the children are to be free and it's The outsiders, foreigners, or whatever word you want to use that should be paying for taxes. This hit me fairly early in my ministry after I started to work in a factory and I noted that our company tried to ship some assembly over to Mexico where the labor was so much cheaper. But we found that the communication was so screwed up that we had tremendous inventory problems and shipping on time so we moved it back and it must have been somewhere in that time that I recalled that principal and realized we did the president that felt the same way. Now I'm really kind of upset at some of the Democrats because they knew this and understood it, like Nancy pelosi, Bernie Sanders, and of course Barack Obama. And they were all for it as long as Trump was in their party I'm not sure what made him switch parties, but I'm glad he did. It might have been Melania and her Catholic convictions on pro life. So, I mentioned this to my very sensible daughter and she thinks that I'm pulling things a single scripture to finance how to sorry how to finance a nation. So my question is to you my fellow research friends who know probably more connections than even our great leader Don does are there other scriptures or other Christian leaders that feel the same I can't believe I'm the first one or the only one I know better but who knows well I should say me and Trump. So find out for me guys is it just Trump and me or isn't it when obviously laughter Nancy Bernie, and Obama, have the Democrats been so polarized by evil women like Hillary that they couldn't admit they knew the answer all along and am I the only Christian pastor or theologian who understands the meaning of this for the nation's finances go to work kids get her done.

FACEBOOK, ROUGH DRAFT, AND MY SECRETARY AI

I hope you will be patient with me as I begin to use Facebook more and more as the rough draft for my journals. Facebook has the best AI secretary and also is the easiest to transfer to sub stack. If you want to choose not to believe that's fine and if you are one of my dear liberal friends you can always block me or just don't stop by and message me and I will answer if you're not from overseas. 

I'm just going to briefly comment on today's election in Wisconsin. George Soros and Elon Musk poured in money for the Wisconsin State judge that will be in charge of redistricting and it looks like we will lose to House seats possibly by 2026 but while I was digesting this someone deflating news I laughed my head off when I saw the other part which shows me our future path if my Revelation from management.. (What?! You didn't get the memo?) told me that Trump was going to win this election. Now, I am not a prophet and I don't want the cult of Mad Dog to get started. I am just a factory worker and retired ordained minister who is also very tired and very fallible. But I did call it, even though I had some friends call me delusional, that Trump was going to win again. So... what I'm excited about is the four word message. And it's the first time I ever got four words.

It's the first time I've ever heard four words. Allow me to explain.

I saw in fiery letters twice the word PREACH!

I once saw the word in FIRE in my mind when we were in Boston and the word was FIRE. The pastor and the Evangelist laughed their heads off but when I called later they both apologized because a huge apartment across the street burned down. 

The day that my son William Michael Dittmer III died I had received one week earlier letters in fire William. For one week I was thinking that it was my beloved father William Michael Dittmer and I gave it no thought after our son was born in mohall North Dakota. But there was a breathing emergency and I was not worried when they took him by an emergency ambulance down to Minot I went to have dinner with my friends the Copelands, and called the Minot hospital and the nurse was obviously shaken and did not want to talk to me and then I realized that the William Michael Dittmer III was my son. 

So yes I do sometimes know when God is speaking and the last message I had a week before Mary died was it's all set up. Repeat. It's. All. Set. Up. 

I'm beginning to believe this is going to go out for a few years. How long? I don't know but one of the things I absolutely w!!ll stand by is that Elon Musk the world's richest man will be used by God with his Starlink satellites to help spread the gospel because this I know, my friends.

I know because I'm part of it. The preaching of the Gospel is unstoppable. May I repeat that? The preaching of the Gospel to the world the highways the hedges the major cities and I already know my message is reaching to Russia and China and I suspect it won't be long till I find out I'm reaching Iran and Iraq. One more time, the preaching of the Gospel is unstoppable. Thank you to all of my international Friends and especially those who are helping to lift up the gospel both here and abroad for working with me and encouraging me and praying for me as I have for you. Non-Stop. Later Gators. MAD DOG
